    UALR football/marching band feasibility report released

    The Trojans borrowed Capt. Obvious as a consultant on this report.

    Maybe they should’ve hired some of Tech’s newly promoted NASA rocket scientists:



    Starting a football program at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock would require a significant infusion of money well beyond an increase in its budget for athletics, according to a consultant's report released Tuesday.
    The university "makes a concerted effort to provide an array of student services but is challenged at times to meet the needs of its approximately 11,000 students, including student-athletes, due to resource constraints," the report by Conventions, Sports & Leisure International said.
    The athletic budget would grow from the current $11 million a year to as much as $23.4 million, depending on which level of NCAA participation the university chose, according to the report.


    Well, duh.

    That was obvious on my trip to and from Branson last weekend. Arkansans are loyal to the Hogs for sure. I suppose a person might see some evidence of Arkansas State in the NE part of the state, but from ElDorado to Harrison it was all Arkansas.

    I said "at work". .

    I've heard them coin it "University of Absolute Last Resort". Not too many school spirited alumns they have.

    I work with a ton of UALR grads too. General consensus I get from them is reminiscent of a ULM grad. They went there because it, well.. was there. No attachment at all.

    Unfortunately this describes a VERY large number of Tech grads as well.

    Some of you Southern Baptists might not know that Denny Burk is a Tech grad. I didn't know that because he posts about lsu all the time.
